Ghostly Bombing.
A nightly bombardment of stones on the roof of a house in Mysore (India) is terrifying numbers of the local residents, who attribute it to evil spirits. Every evening as soon as darkness falls a hail of stones falls on the roof of a certain building, and as yet no solution has been found to the mystery of the ghostly bombing. Attributing it to evil spirits, a number of townspeople approached a magician, who suggested the offering of worship to certain gods. This was done – but the stones keep falling.
